I have a big difficulty in it to squander the time that the tournament is going on. How could 3 hours not a joke. And to sit with a cold head, so as not to go to the all-in and not fly out, it's expensive. Therefore, guys, all of you patience and a good hand)

I think the chat does not really affect the game. External sounds are annoying when the noise is around you, so music helps focus. And if you consider the complexity: it is difficult to reset the problem hand, or it is difficult to go to the fold when you have a middle pair on the flop with a good kicker, and the opponent has risen. It's difficult to play at night, a long tournament when you want to sleep.:elefant:

For me probably doing it consistently. I wish I could play every single day but I just dont feel like it sometimes so my game improves at much slower rate than Id like it to.

Since I'm a quick-tempered person, my poker problem is tilt and the difficulty of getting out of it

Patience is surely key to the game, but also can be our biggest opponent. It seems many of the sites reward poor poker play, and many of the good players end up getting destroyed by it. I have played on many of the sites, and typically when getting beat out of a tournament it is typically by someone with a chump starting hand.
i feel exactly the same most recently after a showdown 2hrs into a mtt my pocket Kk was beat by J,3off which site do think this applys to most i you're opinion?? cheers

What annoys me deeply and people are proud to give bad beats, this kind of attitude takes me from the serious.

Playing within my bankroll. Also if I try to relax and have a drink or two I play way too loose. Currently trying to get good enough to play 200NL cash games. Been messing with lots of different software (flopzilla, Snowie, Holdem Manger etc. which has helped to some degree.

my biggest difficulty in playing poker is when I'm playing with players who keep writing profanity and trying to take away their opponent's taenia, it annoys me deeply.

Biggest difficulty for me!

holding back has got to be the hardest thing..

I seems I want to push when it looks like im about to win...

Holding back before committing all your chips in one hand is so difficult... For me any way...

Stop when the fun stops... Or when you've lost control [emoji33]

As mainly a tournament player I find that maintaing focus over many consecutive hours is very hard to do.

The biggest problem is to show your best game for a long time. I can't do it, there is a strong drop in the level of the game. That's it.

Get silence and peace, generally there is a lot of noise outside and I can not concentrate to get good results.

I do not pay attention to the chat I am completely focused on the game and I advise you to do the same

I think it's just not necessary to play aggressively in an early position:cool:

You try not to lose all your chips. )

I prefer to diversify the game otherwise it will be too predictable

Size Matters?

My biggest problem w online poker is mentally balancing stakes and game situation. It seems when I play a higher stake my focus naturally goes up even though every stake is an opportunity to win. Sometimes if I'm sitting on a 5 buy in and a 50 buy in I'll start playing looser in the 5 to make up for a play I thought about using in the 50 but didn't pull the trigger on. Do you guys allow for buy in variety or do you play all the same size at the same time?

Thanks
